1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Nogo/reticulon (RTN)-4 has been strongly implicated as a disease marker for the motor neuron disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Nogo isoforms, including Nogo-A, are ectopically expressed in the skeletal muscle of ALS mouse models and patients and their levels correlate with the disease severity. The notion of a direct involvement of Nogo-A in ALS aetiology is supported by the findings that Nogo-A deletion in mice reduces muscle denervation and prolongs survival, whereas overexpression of Nogo-A destabilizes motor nerve terminals and promotes denervation. Another intriguing, and somewhat paradoxical, recent finding revealed that binding of the Nogo-66 receptor (NgR) by either agonistic or antagonistic Nogo-66-derived peptides protects against p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75(NTR))-dependent motor neuron death. Ligand binding by NgR could result in subsequent engagement of p75(NTR), and this association could preclude pro-apoptotic signalling by the latter. Understanding the intricate interplay among Nogo isoforms, NgR and p75(NTR) in ALS disease progression may provide important, therapeutically exploitable information.
